Feature Friday: Our Lake Life

Today I am featuring the home of Maria from the blog Our Lake Life. Maria and her family live on a lake in New Jersey. She is slowly fixing up her home and living the dream! Here is what she loves most about her home:

"What we love most about our home are the views! There's something so calming about living by water. In the summer you can find us outdoors most of the time, enjoying the breeze on the dock or taking a sunset boat ride along the shores of the lake. We've totally transformed the yard since first moving in. We now have distinct outdoor rooms that allow us to enjoy both the sunny and shady spots throughout the yard. The house will probably always be a work in progress. My husband and I are always dreaming and creating but we're starting to settle into a style after three years of trial and error. Our goal is to bring some of those watery hues that we see in so much of the landscape inside as well. We have big plans for this home for the future but ultimately we want our home to feel casual, a touch eclectic and a complete retreat from the outside world."
